Anyone who pays attention to baseball should be familiar with the famous Japanese pitcher Darvish! It doesn’t matter if you haven’t watched the Japanese or American professional games. You should at least have heard of his name from international competitions! The editor did not expect that Darvish is also a member of the dog family! Recently he got a pit bull bulldog , which is also the sixth dog member of his family!
A few months ago, Sage, a pit bull, was found in an area near Dallas in critical condition and in need of immediate surgery. Its rescuer, Karly Edington, said that although Sage's physical condition was very bad, she still wagged her tail hard, which looked so distressing!
Karly took Sage home as her halfway foster home, and Sage also became good sisters with Rosemary, another pit bull at home! Sage is full of love, and the two dogs seem to be related by blood! When Rosemary was rescued, she was also in urgent need of medical help. It seems that they are really a pair of sisters in trouble~
But Sage is not so adaptable to life in the apartment, and often barks constantly, which affects the daily life of the neighbors. Life. Karly had no choice but to try to find another new home for Sage, but her luck was not that good. The search took a long time, and the patience of the neighbors was gradually being worn out!
Later, with the help of a radio producer friend, Danny Balis, Karly publicly posted the news on social media that Sage was urgently looking for an adoptive family. Fortunately, the news was forwarded by sports reporter Emily Jones.
Japanese pitcher Darvish in the United States saw this message. He already has five dogs at home. I visited Sage at Karly's residence last Thursday, but because Karly was not keen on sports, she didn't know who Darvish was at first. The producer friend Danny also explained it to her. The next morning, Darvish took his wife, Son, to the apartment to see Sage.
Their original intention was to bring Sage home as a halfway house, hoping to help it find 's adopter smoothly. But Darvish said through a translator, "I thought, if no one wants to adopt him, what will happen to the dog?" Soon, Darvish decided to adopt Sage!
Shannon Glenn, CEO of My Pit Bull Is Family, a pit bull animal protection organization, said they hope that through Sage’s story, more pit bulls can find their forever homes. When a well-known athlete or celebrity adopts a pit bull, it not only increases everyone's awareness of adoption, but also breaks everyone's stereotypes about pit bulls!
Since Sage was adopted by Darvish, he and his wife Son often posted photos of their dogs on social media, and Sage became associated with the term "big league"!
